Treading the Pathways to Life

There are days blue skies can’t be found

When dark and gloomy clouds are all around.

Do we treasure God’s life within

Or do we struggle on with right and wrong?

No food

no drink

no home

no rest

no peace

If we let thorns our oneness pierce;

If one day stormy winds come our way

Will we then be shaken

fall away?

Highways to life

the path our feet must tread

By enjoying Christ

we’re safely led.

Check God in living!

In Him remain

just enjoy Him;

Therefore disheartened

we dare not to be

Firm in heart

now

we

Stay in this line continually

He’ll give Himself faithfully.

Life that swallows death now has come;

‘Tis Christ as our eternal portion.

True Vine

Bread of life

all we need

Life’s Author

even life itself indeed.

This Tree of Life

to us a promise giv’n

Closed to us by the fall of man;

Christ us redeemed

re-op’ning the way

Then rising

life conquered death for aye.

Daily eat and drink

breathe in Christ

Our thirst is quenched

our hunger satisfied;

With our spirit pray

touch the Word

By pray’r in private

touch the living Lord.

Confess

be dealt with for the genuine growth;

His life in us may freely flow.

Have more of Christ wrought into our being

Till others receive life’s watering.

Life results in building

we see;

Fulfilling God’s divine economy.

God Triune is our oneness real

One corp’rate Body’s what He wants to see;

Each one grows with the growth of God each day

We have real building

God display;

The New Jerusalem we will be

Our glorious eternal destiny.
